INCOME TAX RETURN USING THE M FORM

WHAT IS THE M FORM?

The M form combines a foreign period with a resident period. The reason for this questionnaire is because the Dutch tax authorities have no previous information about you, which they are enquiring through this M form. The M form can’t be filled online but must be filed on paper.

Experience shows that most expats that file the M form, get a tax refund due to the high amount of tax that they have paid that year, while not having lived a full year in the Netherlands. In short, they have paid too much tax that year and receive a tax refund from the tax authorities.

C FORM FOR NON RESIDENTS

A C form is applicable for those who are not a resident, but have received income from the Netherlands. This can be employment income, but also those who have a second home in the Netherlands.
